Chapter 640: Wu Zhe's Advice
Wu Zhe was stunned when he heard this.
If you look at it from the perspective of a high-level supporting role, Zong Zhilian should step on his father's corpse to take the position, which can be regarded as powerful and domineering.
However, King Jin died, but not at the hands of Zong Zhilian.
He, a faint king who doesn't recognize his own children and grandchildren in order to survive, has no courage to commit suicide, so he was naturally killed by others. The one who killed him was actually his queen.
Zong Zhilian told Wu Zhe the information he got now: During the siege of the palace, the Empress Jin lost three of her own sons, and when she saw her infant grandson killed, her sanity was almost collapsed. After the fall of the palace gate, the king of Jin tried to surrender to the state of Wu. The royal concept of the Jin Dynasty was quite stubborn, and he refused to do it after the country, so he angrily stabbed the King of Jin to death. After that, she also committed suicide by drinking a dagger.
"Well, that's fine. Wu Zhe thought about it, patted Zong Zhilian's shoulder and breathed a sigh.
Zong Zhilian is such a smart person, he naturally understood what Wu Zhe meant, nodded and said in a deep voice: "That's true." If he's still alive, I really don't know if I'll be ruthless. β
King Jin must die.
If he doesn't die, not to mention his political ability and charm index, the succession to the throne of Zong Zhilian alone may have waves.
Zong Zhilian never called King Qi his father in front of Wu Zhe, obviously he didn't take this incompetent father to heart. It's just that there is always a blood relationship between father and son, and he can't be too ruthless.
If the King of Jin does not die, Wu Zhe will have to consider arranging for someone to fake the plot that the King of Jin was killed by the people of Wuguo.
Now that the King of Jin did not die in their hands, but under the anger of the Empress Jin, it is really the best situation.
"Let's be overbearing. Wu Zhe said.
"Jiao Zhao?" Zong Zhilian quickly reacted: "You mean forging King Qi's edict?"
"Not bad. The Jin Kingdom needs a nominal heir, even if many people know that it may be an edict, you also need such an orthodox reputation. β
Zong Zhilian agrees with this judgment: "There is a need for such a thing, alas. Forced me to fake. The national seal has already arrived in my hands, and it can be made casually, but the minister who wrote the edict in the past has died in the chaos. β
"What kind of gentleman are you pretending to be? You've long thought of fakes. As soon as Wu Zhe heard him say that the pen-holding minister was dead, he knew that he had already had this intention.
"Well, I don't admit to cheating, but I just say that I was forced to cheat. Alas. I am a pure, kind, and sincere gentleman, so why should I do such a thing. β
"When you become a king, you will have to do more of this kind of deception. Wu Zhe smiled: "Leave the matter of imitating handwriting to me, as long as I give me his past calligraphy traces, I can learn it." β
"Yes, yes, that's what you specialize in. Zong Zhilian pulled over a few old edicts: "Na, I'm ready." β
Wu Zhe kicked him: "The preparations for fraud are all ready, and you still pretend to be innocent!"
After two glances, Wu Zhe wrote an edict with a pen under the grinding of Zong Zhilian.
Zong Zhilian praised: "Wow. Ruoyao, even if you are not a military advisor, you can be a calligrapher. The handwriting technique is completely impeccable, and I am afraid that the chief of the Bo channel will not recognize the handwriting as fake. β
"What kind of calligrapher can casually pretend to be the handwriting of a big man, cheat some money, and use himself to make a reputation?" Wu Zhe looked at Zong Zhilian with disdain.
Zong Zhilian looked at it and was amazed: "The pen is completely the same." I don't see any flaws. This pencil is dead again, so there is no problem with this edict of succession. β
"There are a lot of horses and feet exposed. Look at the scrolls of this book and see the flaws. The edges are broken and the paper is torn a bit. It's better to have a little tears on it. By the way, a few more times on the fire will be more like. β
Zong Zhilian listened and cocked his thumb: "Ruoyao, you are a powerful person who fakes!
β...... I'll listen to it as a good thing. β
Zong Zhilian put away the edict and thought about it, and said: "The chief of the Bo channel is loyal to the country. It's someone you can trust. This time, he couldn't hide it. β
Wu Zhe said: "You don't have to tell him explicitly. I think if he supports you, he might be pretending to be confused. β
After talking about the content of the edict, Zong Zhilian said again: "Qi State reinforcements this time, I plan to send five million taels from this amount to show goodwill, how about it?"
Wu Zhe's eyes lit up: "Gold or silver?"
"Silver. It must be silver. Zong Zhilian rolled his eyes: "After this war, the Jin Kingdom has more places to use money. β
Wu Zhe nodded: "Okay, I reluctantly admit that you are quite generous, that's right." β
"Jin Qi is good, I hope to maintain it for a long time. Wu Zhe said.
Zong Zhi thought for a while and said, "My sister's child is four years old, so she will have a baby kiss with the heir of a certain prince of Qi State, right?"
"Don't mess around, what kind of baby kiss, what if people fall in love freely in the future? β
Zong Zhi thought for a moment to understand the meaning of free love, and said embarrassedly: "Then it's not easy to get it, can you arrange a blind date when they are older?"
"That's too long. Wu Zhe smiled and said: "At present, there is one best way to do it." β
Zong Zhilian's heart moved faintly: "What way?"
Wu Zhe smiled: "You married Gong Xiaolu, so that you will have peace and stability for a long time." β
Zong Zhilian was disappointed, and at the same time, it was also a black line.
"Okay, now you need to build your own forces, recruit troops, and recruit talent. Wu Zhe shook the crane in the outer cover, shook the feather fan and posed: "This army is built by the army, let's make a recruitment order!"
"Recruitment order?"
Wu Zhe talked about the concept of recruiting talents in another world.
"Okay, I vaguely have this idea too!" Zong Zhilian spread out a large piece of paper and wrote a few words on the recruitment order at the beginning.
Wu Zhe shook his head and said, "You have to write the content of the recruitment order now? I don't have time to wait for you." β
"No, there are a lot of things to do, you build them one by one, and I'll record them. β
"Who would spend so much brain time on you?"
Zong Zhilian shook his head and began to mutter: "500,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of gold......"
Wu Zhe said impatiently: "Okay, even if the military advisor's consultation fee is included." β
Then, Wu Zhe began to teach Zong Zhilian a large number of policies promulgated by Cao Cao in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Although the current situation of the Jin state, although the economy, life, and military Dacheng dΓΉ are close to those of the Sui Dynasty, the social system is very similar to that of the late Later Han Dynasty. A large number of clan remnants remained, and the system of selecting talents was too backward compared to Qi and Wu.
"The people of the Wu Kingdom invaded the Jin capital this time, although they killed and injured countless civilians of the Jin Kingdom, but they also brought out many nobles. Wu Zhe analyzed the current situation: "You can just show your skills this time, and the resistance you encounter is definitely much smaller than that of a normal succession." β
Zong Zhilian said worriedly: "Just a recruitment order, it is estimated that there will be nobles who will take the lead in jumping out." Because it affects their rights. β
The recruitment order is that regardless of a person's background, you can become an official just by looking at your talent and ability. It is contrary to the rules that the clan does not need any skills and can be an official based on his identity alone. Wu Zhe knows that the latter will inevitably be eliminated by history, but now the concept of class in this era is deep-rooted, and many people can't figure it out.
"You can break him down secretly without going head-to-head. Wu Zhe hated the iron and knocked it out: "For example, if the other party is rich, you will create conflicts among his partners, and the uneven distribution of spoils is the eternal law of dog bite dog." β
Zong Zhilian blinked his eyes and said embarrassedly: "I guess it's an academic family, such as Dong's family, he doesn't love money, and he is very frugal in life, but he is likely to jump out and shout that the recruitment order will violate the ancestral decree." β
"Remember, the truth is always in the hands of bad media, no, you don't understand it, anyway, the truth is always in the ears of the blind people. Wu Zhe said: "They don't care what the truth is, and they don't want to find out, the vast majority of people will just follow and coax." Anyway, you say that an official is a bad guy, and you don't need any evidence at all, just say that he has a second wife or something. β
"Second wife?"
"It's a concubine. β
"What's wrong with the maintenance concubine?"
β...... By the way, this rumor doesn't work. Wu Zhe patted his head.
In this era, three wives and four concubines are commonplace, and no one has any criticism of the official Bao Ermi, and it is okay to even enter and leave the Qinglou.
"Then you can find a few women, hold up their big bellies and say that he has been messing up and abandoning. It can also be said that in order to become famous, or in order to marry a better wife, he abandoned his ex-wife, or even bought a murderer! It is better to bring children to enhance his credibility. Holding one in his hand, one in his arms, and one in his belly, such a woman crying in the street definitely makes his reputation stink!"
"......" Zong Zhilian was dumbfounded, and looked at Wu Zhe's high-minded talk as if the stars were flying all over the sky.
"When the time comes, he won't be able to argue, you just need to secretly send someone to pretend to be a martial arts warrior to protect you. The common people absolutely believe in one thing. Wu Zhe said with a smile: "Also, what do you say about his favorite wife, oh, it's someone else's wife, especially the wife who likes to seduce colleagues secretly." Spread rumors again that so-and-so's wife gave birth to a son like him...... It's up to you to think and spread these rumors. β
"I, I, I can't think of ......"
"I can't think of it, you can make it up! You don't need any evidence, you just can't splash dirty water?"
"Ah......h
"There are also deliberate rumors that he likes men, especially for doormen, students and the like, and he has a special hobby. And I like to do some things in the study when I guide people alone......" Wu Zhe said more and more energetically: "By the way, buy some big men with chest hair, preferably the kind with sores on the buttocks, and carry them in a soft sedan car." Let them pout their butts upside down and carry them to the street to scold the Dong family who dared to jump out......"
Listening to Wu Zhe's plan, Zong Zhilian was completely petrified.
He has always boasted of having a flamboyant belly, but at this moment he feels that he is too pure, too kind, and too upright...... (To be continued......)
